METROPOLIS 3

DIRT

The Metropolis is a dedicated dirt jumping bike. You can take it straight out of the box and head to Mellowpark to practice your 360 nosedives, or even go for a big backflip at a Crankworx event. If you are not planning to go so far, hit the streets and practice some off-the-bank tailwhips. The bike is ready for this kind of stuff because it has all the features of a modern pro-level dirt bike. The geometry and parts have been chosen by our top riders, therefore the build is significantly different than what you normally find in “corporate” bikes.

 

The Metropolis 3 continues into 2015 as our entry-level dirt bike. It's built on a solid NS frame and fitted with high end NS aftermarket parts - rare in this price category. Our aim was to make a bike accessible to everyone and offer 100% of the function that high-end bikes have, with the only compromise being slightly higher weight. There are no “do-not-jump” warning stickers on this bike!
